Discovering the wine region of Beaujolais-Villages

Beaujolais Villages is the appellation for red, white and rosé wines from an area of 38 villages in the northern Beaujolais. The hilly terrain and granitic soil are considered superior to the flatter land of southern Beaujolais. As a result, Beaujolais Villages wines are considered to be of higher quality than those of the simple Beaujolais appellation. These juicy, light wines are based largely on the Gamay Grape.

They have a variety of red fruit and spice characters. Most of the wines at this level are made by semi-carbonic Maceration, called traditional maceration here. A small proportion of Chardonnay, Aligoté, Melon de Bourgogne, Pinot Gris or Pinot Noir is allowed in the blend. These grape varieties must not represent more than 15% of the total Vineyard area.

Discover the grape variety: Verdesse

Verdesse is a white grape variety, grown on an area of about 5 ha. It is found particularly in the Grésivaudan and Drac valleys. It is also called verdêche, étraire blanche de Grenoble or verdasse. The leaves are lobed and dark green in colour. Long, sturdy stalks carry the bunches. A juicy and sweet flesh is found under the white skin, turning amber red, of the mature berries. The berries are medium-sized and ellipsoid in shape. To be productive and vigorous, the variety is pruned rather long. Verdesse is not very resistant to mildew and powdery mildew, but it is very resistant to grey rot. A particularly alcoholic wine is produced from this variety. It has a pleasant flavour and a vegetal and floral scent. This wine does not keep long, and is best consumed during the first few years.
